Alright, Keyword Girl

So remember this post? The one where I said we had to memorize from 1 John? I was preeeeeetty nervous about that. {Still am, actually.}

But I figured out something that works for me!

If I write out the verses and leave blanks for any keywords/important words, I'm not left stumbilng through the "and, which, the, in, by, have, is, to" stuff! I can remember the key words and the more I read through it all, the easier it's becoming to memorize.

{This stemmed from Courtney's advice to write the verses 3 times - thanks Courtney!}

Of course, now we're on to 8-14... which is scary. After this week, I will probably have more scripture memorized than I ever have before.

{Kind of like, I think I've read more in the past year than I ever have, and I've run more in the past 3 weeks than I ever have... God's doing some cool stuff with me this year!}

Any other advice for memorization??
